[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH v3] ocfs2: fix a panic problem caused by o2cb_ctl

In the process of creating a node, it will cause NULL pointer
dereference in kernel if o2cb_ctl failed in the interval
(mkdir, o2cb_set_node_attribute(node_num)] in function o2cb_add_node.

The node num is initialized to 0 in function o2nm_node_group_make_item,
o2nm_node_group_drop_item will mistake the node number 0 for a
valid node number when we delete the node before the node number is set
correctly. If the local node number of the current host happens to be 0,
cluster->cl_local_node will be set to O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM while
o2hb_thread still running. The panic stack is generated as follows:

o2hb_thread
    \-o2hb_do_disk_heartbeat
        \-o2hb_check_own_slot
            |-slot = &reg->hr_slots[o2nm_this_node()];
            //o2nm_this_node() return O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM

We need to check whether the node number is set when we delete the node.
